Overview
- The brief footage, embedded in HBO’s 2026 reel, shows Kyle Chandler’s Hal Jordan testing Aaron Pierre’s John Stewart during a cliffside car sequence.
- Hal tells John he’s not ready until the ring decides, sets a ring on the dashboard, and bails from the moving car as it heads off a cliff.
- HBO-promoted follow-up content later in the day amounted to an even shorter tease introduced by Aaron Pierre rather than a full trailer.
- The series frames Hal as a veteran guiding a new recruit through an earthbound investigation in the American heartland, emphasizing a detective tone.
- Chris Mundy serves as showrunner with Damon Lindelof and Tom King writing, Ulrich Thomsen plays Sinestro, Nathan Fillion’s Guy Gardner appears, and the show is slated for HBO/Max in 2026.
